Getting to know Wanda Murray
We'll focus on what’s actually happening in your everyday life and identify the thoughts and reactions that may be making difficult situations even harder. That could mean learning how to quiet the anxious thoughts that keep you up at night, catching yourself before anger turns into an argument, setting boundaries with family without feeling guilty, or adjusting to changes in your health or abilities. Instead of automatically believing thoughts like “I can’t handle this” or “nothing is going to change,” we’ll learn to challenge them and develop a more realistic and compassionate way of looking at yourself and your situation. I’ll help you recognize what you can change, build on what’s already working, and take manageable steps toward the life and relationships you want.
What should a new client know about working with you?
You don’t need to arrive knowing exactly what to say or where to begin. We’ll talk about what has been weighing on you lately, whether that’s losing someone you love, constantly worrying, feeling down, struggling with your health, arguing with your partner or family, or simply feeling overwhelmed by everything you’re carrying. I’ll want to understand how these challenges are affecting your relationships, work, health, and everyday life, as well as what you most want to change. By the end of our first conversation, my goal is for you to feel heard and to have a clearer idea of where we can start.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Every session is different because your needs, experiences, and goals are unique. Typically, we will begin by checking in about how things have been going since our last meeting and identifying what feels most important for you to talk about during the session.
